What happened

Guatemala: Towns evacuated as Fuego volcano erupts The country's disaster agency issued its second-highest warning level and urged residents to seek shelter.

Why it matters

The stakes turn on whether readers accept that Goldie Hawn is living it up this summer. The 80-year-old Hollywood star. That point shapes the political meaning of the story.

Common ground

Perspective signals
